Creating report of reports... :)

Is it possible to create a report that pulls together the summary information from all the reports in a given directory?

I'm storing some info in the summary that indicates which SQL command the report is based on... I'd like to be able to generate a report on that so that if I ever change the SQL command I can determine which reports need updating.

Here's hoping there's a guru out there who can show me the way... :)

If you go to the database expert->create new connection you will see "File System Data" and under that is "Local File System". You can select the directory you want to use as a basis for your report there, and the summary field is one of the available fields.

I think vidru was the one who first explained how to go about this.
